I mean, what is illegal? If there is no enforcement (around me there are cops on the road like 2 days a month) then there are no road laws.
Right! Like whenever I have a little oopsy daisy in my car I just take a breath and remind myself that laws are threats made by the dominant socio-economic, ethnic group in a given nation. It's just a promise of violence that's enacted and police are basically an occupying army.
Traffic laws are also there so you don't kill someone with the multi tonne steel missile you are operating with such nonchalance.
Fucking right? "No cop saw me so it's fine!". Motherfucker, I saw you, had to slam on brakes because your selfish, non-thinking ass pulled an illegal maneuver.
Sounds like something an occupying soldier would say 🤨
Do you say that after running a stop sign in a school zone and killing a child?
They were an adolescent at worst, and I didn't stop to see if they died, so that's pretty presumptive.
The IRS says you have to write yourself a ticket so you can pay tax on it. This is how they got Al Capone's driver.
This. Entirely this.
The frustrating part is when there are laws in place for something, and they're not being enforced and law makers think that making more laws about something will somehow fix the enforcement issues...
Making it more illegal only harms law abiding people, enforcement actually harms the law breakers.
It's not rocket surgery.
